Hello !
I'm using a neomagic card NM2160 12XD. I rode that the dga mode is very 
good with my graphic card and mplayer. I use XV, but a -vo dga, in root 
mode, don't work.

In the documentation of mplayer, it's specified to use dga mode with a 
patch for Xfree86.
I don't know how to use it, and if I must do. In effect, I have Ubuntu 
with xorg, not xfree86.
 From the doc, the patch must be included in the next version 4.3.0.

This is the link of the patch : 
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/contrib/NeoMagic-driver/
But the "neo_driver.patch" give that ; but my card NM2160 does'nt appear !
